Prague Invasion: 1968 by Josef Koudelka

Czech photographer Josef
Koudelka was centre stage with his camera when the Soviet tanks rolled
into Prague in 1968, photographing mass demonstrations and the
confrontations between protestors and invading soldiers. Smuggled out
of Czechoslovakia soon after the invasion,
Koudelkaâ€™s stunning black-and-white
pictures of the citizens of Prague swarming the streets as tanks rumble
towards them were widely published in theWest, and remain the
definitive images of those tumultuous days. (Thames & Hudson,
